    Yeah, something like "Honey, look at the view here! Can we go?" :biggrin_25525:
    And then just to make it clear "No, the kids are not invited!" LOL

    I stopped at a little fuel stop here on 83 and 3 troopers watched me pull in with all my lights flashing at odarkthirty so I think I'm just going to stay here. I'll be an outlaw in WY tomorrow if I have to in order to make it home. Pisses me off because I can run at night in CO.

    I am pretty sure that I can speak for 99.9% of men on the planet. If we are going to a place like that, we certainly are not going to invite the kids.

    0408141522a.jpg 0408141527.jpg my load of lumber, heading to Montrose Colorado, seems like the straps don't stay very tight for very long on this one.

    I wouldn't drive across the street with that load without stakes. All you are doing is pulling the bundles down and distorting them. If you had choked the bundles they would at least stay together. One band breaks the bundle is just going to fall apart.
